Foreign Body Aspiration, Blood Gas, Bronchoscopy
Conditions
Brief summary

Detailed description
Foreign body aspiration in children is a serious cause of mortality and morbidity. It is a preventable and treatable disease. Difficulties in diagnosis arise in non-radiopaque foreign body aspirations. Recently, when there is a suspicious history, bronchoscopy is recommended. Bronchoscopy is used to both diagnose and treat foreign body aspiration. Bronchoscopy seems to continue to be performed in suspicious cases until a method to establish a definitive diagnosis of foreign body aspirations before the operation is invented. In our study, to compare patients under 5 years of age with foreign body aspiration and without foreign body aspiration with radiological and blood gas results.
Interventions
